Yes. No way to know for sure tho.

Is the classic definition of blind faith.

WTF? I know this is some kind of metaphor, I've heard it before. But, tress don't get up, when it's down it's down and dead. For all to see post falling. What's the significance here? Pardon my being dense.

When a man is alone in the woods, and his wife is not there, is he STILL wrong?

"Tab (tree)" . . .glad you spelled out that metaphor, for us.

Apparently, when "no one is there to hear him" a new thread is created. . .. But, really, you shouldn't be so hard on yourself. . . refering to yourself as "no one." I hear that if you belong to a gruppe, you ARE someone.

Send a message via AIM to vash
if you ingnore the thud of the tree falling, historically, another tree will fall shortly.

All I know is when a Tabs starts a thread and no one notices it, the Tabs immediately starts a new thread

All I know is iff you post something metaphorical, someone will post the same thing without the figurative language.

Funny, I asked this question on 3 Dec 2002. I like tabs better now.

If Tabs posts in a forum and no-one replies, did he really post at all?

It applies to everyone. Especially if you post it in off topic.

By the way, funniest thing, ever (PG-13 rated):

Isn't guilt a wonderfull thing...

Every once in awhile I like to remind certain people that they can't get away from me.....ignore me as they try....it is a futile gesture...because I know how to reach out and touch them.

I have what maybe called Presence...I am larger than life...I am after all a man of wealth and taste....
